Follow the example

Choose a step to follow the example. Opening a request lets you review it; it does not submit a job or change your account.

Step 1 of 3

Enter a loss from the prior peak

Enter a 20% drawdown. This means $100 at the previous peak has fallen to $80.

What you should see

Recovering from $80 to $100 requires a 25% gain.

Step 2 of 3

Change one input

Change only drawdown to 50%.

What you should see

Half the previous capital remains, so the required recovery is 100%.

Step 3 of 3

Inspect a completed example

Open a saved crypto strategy to compare these hypothetical inputs with its recorded quantities, fees and full history.
